最近谍照记者拍到了2017款路虎揽胜改款车照片，当时这辆原型车正在进行冬季车型，新车将于年底发布。现行版揽胜是在2012年秋季发布的，因此现在到了进行中期改款的时间。新车最大变化是车头部分，采用蜂巢格栅而非三条横杠格栅。前保险杠也有所不同，侧进气口进行了改款，雾灯也不见了。前车门不再有垂直竖条，看来是设计人员决定完全去掉那些多余的东西。车尾没有发现任何变化，但随着逐步改款的原型车开始测试，也不排除车尾存在进一步变化的可能性。现在谈论新车动力系统还为时过早，话虽如此，但现行版搭载的3.0升V6机械增压引擎功率可能会从目前的340马力提升至380马力。路虎可能会在10月开幕的巴黎车展发布2017款揽胜，随后很快上市。

 

Range Rover facelift spied hiding subtle changes

A partially camouflaged prototype of the 2017 Range Rover facelift was spotted while undergoing winter testing ahead of an expect reveal by the end of this year.

 

The fourth generation of Land Rover’s luxobarge has been around since the fall of 2012, so it should not come as a big surprise the premium SUV is about to receive a mid-cycle update.

 

The biggest changes noticeable so far are at the front where the grille eschews the three-bar look in favor of a honeycomb configuration. The bumper also appears to be a tad different and hosts revised side air intakes while the fog lights are gone.

 

Looking at the car’s side profile, the front doors don’t seem to have those vertical blades anymore. This probably means Land Rover’s designers have decided to remove them altogether. Moving towards the rear, there aren’t any changes so far, but that could change in the near future when more evolved prototypes will start testing procedures.

 

It’s still too early to say whether there will be any sort of engine changes. That being said, the supercharged 3.0-liter V6 could be bumped from the current 340 horsepower to 380 hp as seen in the Jaguar F-Pace S.

 

Land Rover could decide to bring the facelifted 2017 Range Rover to the Paris Motor Show scheduled for October and kick off sales shortly thereafter.
